Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Kevin Rock
Good Evening,
    The week has been hectic but I've had a night and a day to recoup.  
Hopefully this is Saturday night :)  I have been sleeping so I can't tell
the days.  But, it feels like Saturday.  Friday was sunny and warm then
the rains came.  Therefore it must be Saturday in Western Oregon.  
However, around dinnertime the sun came out again, not quite so warm as
yesterday but blue sky is pleasant.  My sister was here for a few days
during the week to find a little solitude.  Her writing projects were well
in hand when her son drove up a few hours ago to take her home.  I got to
show off my radio projects and a few robots.  I think he likes the silence
and the electronic gadgets.  Now to get him pounding nails and cutting
firewood ;)
    I've not been on the radio since last Sunday thus have no idea how the
propagation will be for tomorrow's nets.  We shall simply play it by ear.  
Daylight savings net times are in place.  Maybe Geoff, GM4ESD, will be
awakened by his alarm pheasant Murdock and find an auroral opening to work
us.  That would be a treat.  He's been trying assiduously for a couple of
years even though we are in a bit of a low in propagation.  One never can
tell though since we did have some aurora due to a shift in the magnetic
field allowing a little of the solar wind through.  That may well have
recharged our propagation layer.  One can always hope.
    Visit our web site: http://ecn.visionseer.com  The site has a few
scripts of net procedures if you are not familiar with how nets are
structured and run.  Dan has kindly given us a spot on one of his servers
for the nets' archives.  Thank you Dan.  Now for me to get to work on the
webpage to make some much needed changes.  Ms. Pat used to fix and polish
those pages but she has taken a break for a while :(  I miss her.

     Please join us:
Sunday 2300z (Sunday 4pm PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0200z (Sunday 7pm PDT)  7045 kHz

    Until tomorrow,
        Kevin.  KD5ONS
